“…It was found in this study that the nurses’ PS mean score (39.96 ± 6.05) was high when the highest score obtainable on the scale was evaluated. In similar studies in the literature, nurses’ patience levels were reported to be high (Isik et al, 2022; Süzen and Çevik, 2020). In addition, patience levels were higher in nurses who were aged 29 years or more, who had worked in the ICU or in total for 6 years or more, and who were married and had children ( p < 0.05; Table 3).…”

Backgrounds: Intensive care nurses’ attitudes towards the elderly and their emotional readiness before giving care can have an impact on the quality of care. Aims: The objective of this study was to investigate intensive care nurses’ compassion and patience levels and their attitude towards elderly people. Methods: ‘Data Gathering Form’, the ‘Compassion Competence Scale’, the ‘Patience Scale and the University of California at Los Angeles Geriatrics Attitude (UCLA-GA) were used. Results: A total of 212 intensive care nurses participated in the study. It was found that nurses whose time working in the intensive care unit and total professional experience were 6 years or more and those who were married and had children had higher levels of both compassion and patience. In addition, patience levels were significantly higher in nurses aged 29 or more. It was found that the nurses’ sociodemographic and professional characteristics did not affect their UCLA-Geriatrics Attitudes total score. Conclusion: It was found in the study that there was a significant positive correlation between the nurses’ compassion and patience levels and their attitudes toward elderly people.

“…This may be because people with high levels of happiness accumulate more positive emotions, are satisfied with their lives, and can positively influence their organizational performance, which in turn positively affects the quality of care delivery [37]. Moreover, nurses with positive psychological qualities, such as resilience, and empathy, tend to maintain consistent positive expectations about future outcomes, which then leads to more positive outcomes that enhance their mental health, job satisfaction, professional self-concept [38][39][40], and career decision-making [41]. However, individual attributes take longer to develop and may be influenced by the environment, education, and experience [36].…”

Background Nurses with a strong professional self-concept tend to exhibit a positive mindset and strong work engagement, delivering high-quality patient care. Although numerous quantitative studies have examined the factors impacting professional self-concept, there remains a limited exploration of these factors from the perspective of nurses themselves. Methods This qualitative descriptive study uses the PERMA theory and Social Cognitive Theory as the theoretical framework. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 nurses from six public hospitals in China. The data were analyzed thematically using a combination of inductive and deductive approaches. Results Nurses’ understanding of professional self-concept could be divided into four categories: professional identity, competence, care, and knowledge. Factors influencing nurses’ professional self-concept were categorized into eight subthemes in three domains: (1) personal factors, including psychological qualities and attitude towards the nursing profession; (2) occupational-related behavioral factors, including role-oriented behavior and knowledge-oriented behavior; and (3) work environment and external factors, including external evaluation and perceptions of nurses, time allocation, nursing work tasks, work atmosphere, school education, and perceived supports. Conclusions This study found that, although nurses had different personal experiences, their perceptions of professional self-concept were similar. Nurses’ professional self-concept is a multidimensional concept and involves various factors, such as personality, work-related characteristics, environment, and family. To thrive in a nursing career, nurses must discern the factors that can enhance or hinder their professional self-concept. By identifying and adjusting these factors, personalized support and positive interventions can be tailored to meet nurses’ specific needs, which ultimately nurtures their professional development. Trial registration This study was registered on December 14, 2022, in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2200066699) as part of our ongoing study.

“…26 Like compassion, it too has been a subject of interest since the 19 th century and is included in professional nursing standards and competencies. 27,28 Empathy is also well recognised as an essential facet of nursing care which facilitates therapeutic communication, 20,[28][29][30][31][32][33] improves patient outcomes and satisfaction, 28,29,[33][34][35][36] and is a key element of person-centred care. 32,37,38 Although nursing education frequently refers to compassion and empathy, there is much speculation on whether compassion is an inherent trait, and its teachability.…”

Aim: A discussion of empathy and compassion including patient and nursing perspectives, barriers and enablers, and the potential for development, teachability, and sustainability of empathy and compassion in nursing.Background: Whilst compassion and empathy have long been recognised as prerequisites for the provision of effective nursing care, there are many interpretations of their meanings and the two are often transposed. The presence or absence of compassionate and empathetic nursing care has multiple positive and negative effects on nursing satisfaction and retention and on patients' experiences and health outcomes.Design: Discussion paper.
